As long as we are on memory lane, none of the 100s were Cat 3 and some of the older 200s were only Cat 2. I think there were some 100s that were Cat 3 capable in theory but we're not maintained to that standard. I think all of the airplanes had GPSs but they only bought x number of FMC like control heads. They could swap them out.
